[Coco] Re: It's been awfully quite?

Richard:

I too have no intention of leaving this list in favor of 
an IM, I was just suggesting it for more social chatter 
and for the Fests.  I also agree with Torsten about the 
ability to read the email at any time.  I've had technical 
chats with some memebers, but have had to turn on 
archiving so I can recall the facts later.

I like said before, it appears we've lost one list, and I 
don't want to see us lose another, but IM's could be used 
as a back up to a list temorarily going down (it happens) 
and for special events like the fest, and just personal 
chatter.

Just my two cents :)
